A comforting and creamy pasta dish made with roasted butternut squash, perfect for autumn evenings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups butternut squash, diced
  • 8 ounces pasta (e.g., fettuccine or penne)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • Fresh herbs (e.g., basil or parsley) for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

  4. Heat a little olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet and add the minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant.

  6. Toss the cooked pasta in the skillet with the sauce, mixing in the grated Parmesan cheese.

Notes

For added depth, try toasting the garlic just until it starts to brown before adding the cream.
